Abstract: A method for the disinfection of objects includes producing an atmospheric plasma jet inside a space through which a process gas flows and at least partially bombarding a surface of the object with the plasma jet, whereby a disinfecting effect is achieved by way of an energy transfer from the plasma jet to the surface of the object. With this method a more effective surface disinfection is made possible without increasing the quantity of disinfecting agent in itself.

Abstract: For assisting the self-test of circuits with unequiplebable random patterns, a logic module is provided which is composed of two types of basic cells. Each basic cell contains a register cell and a sub-circuit composed of gates. Dependent on two control signals, the basic cells can be operated as a normal register, as a shift register or as a linear feedback shift register. In the operational mode as a linear feedback shift register, the logic module can be used as a random pattern generator. To this end, the logic module is divided into a first module and into a second module. The first module contains an interconnection of two types of basic cells and a combinational logic system which operates the one part of the output signals of the basic cell in accordance with a Boolean function. The operational result is supplied to a second module of identical basic cells which operates as a shift register.

Abstract: A gasket for use with window panes, such as windshields, fixedly mounted into a window opening of an automotive vehicle. The gasket is affixed to the margin of the window pane, and a base portion of the gasket is removably inserted into the gap formed between the edge of the pane and the surrounding wall portion of the window opening.
